guys, what do you say if I let go my 1-month old D60 kit and get A200 twin kit?

kysham, the reason is due to lens option, too limited for D60 which does not have motor in it. and when I want to get 50mm, I cant with the existing ones. the latest 50mm nikorr with AF-S is here, but the price is crazy for a new comer like me (1 month old)

i have good pic experience with D60, and I know the performance is not a big difference with A200

some example;

pic 2


plus points for A200 from my view is
-built in motor
-lens option
-very cheap with twin kit lens
-no difference with A350 but the live view and bigger pixels
-it's a sony

the live view is not important to me, plus the performance is no difference at all, no?

from feedback I get so far, it is better for me to stay with D60.. hmm but with a200 i can get twin lense wor.. penin2 huhu

yeah price diff is about that amount, quite big for just a live view

i have no other but the kit lense.

oh you just gave me best option to save my $$ even after resell my d60!

a200 with 1 kit is only about 1699 at sony centre, perhaps cheaper at street shop.. wah that's good!
with 50mm second hand minolta also works right?

well this is a plus points for me to sell my D60 and get a200

wahaha i thought u didnt recognize me leh

dude, you got the awesome a900 already? damn so fast. ya ya laundry to learn my low light

about the 35mm, i bet it would be near 2k as well with AF-S, just like 50mm

too expensive for new comer. so i guess kysham's suggestion is good

yeah, does not come with VR

if I sell my d60, say i get rm1600, i already can buy a200+kit and with just extra few hundred bucks, I can have 50mm secondhand already.

but upgrading to d80, from rm1600 resell price, hmm kinda expensive to spend

d80 body only already cost me 2200

but a200 + kit lens + 50mm is I believe less than d80 body only

*haih, wish I know all these before I even purchase D60 haha. tu la, tak kenal mana nak tau. skarang dah kenal, sibuk nak tukar2. macam kat skolah dulu-dulu, nak tukar tempat bila tau kita duduk kat sebelah budak yang tak best

what is a-mount? i dunno leh *still new in this arena huhu

well if that's the case, then i will prepare to sell my d60, and go for a200.

get the 1 kit lens package, and hold for the coming 50mm f1.8, by the time they release I believe I can afford ady. hope the price is not as expensive as nikorr AF-S

therefore, selling my d60kit = getting new a200kit (cheaper), no extra cost involve.

great!

more lens but d60 is limited to AF-S only. not much our there, and if there is, it's way too expensive than the normal AF lens

well hopefully.

because 50mm AF-S F1.4 already cost rm19XX
